Quilt Retreat

We just had a wonderful quilt retreat at our local cooperative extension office. Boy did we ever have fun. I got alot completed. Much more than I would have if I would have stayed at home and sewed. I would have had to stop to put in and check on laundry, take out the dog, vacuum the floor, do dishes, prepare meals and on and on........I am doing the happy dance. We worked on our quilting projects from 9:30am.-4:30am.
We had lots of laughs and food. I am nearing the completion of a quilt called "A Wing and A Prayer". Will I everrrrrr be glad to get this quilt complete... Yes I will. It is going to be very pretty, it just has lots of pieces. I know one thing, when I pick out my next quilting project I will certainly look at the number of pieces in it. Just can't wait to finish and get it quilted put on the binding and get it spread out on my bed.. This will all happen in the near future.. pending day to day situations..
Happy Quilting.....
